This PR contains code to demonstrate issue #13.

I've completed the example/simple.rs server to send different response to different commands.

I also created scripts/test_imap.sh and completed scripts/test_imap.py with different examples of using the APPEND command:

scripts/test_imap.py uses Python's IMAPlib .append() method, which uses the continuation-style IMAP APPEND
scripts/test_imap.sh directly writes the IMAP APPEND in the non-continuation-style using netcat

As expected, the IMAPlib version just hangs indefinitely: Python waits for the server to send a continuation response, which is unimplemented.

However, unexpectedly, the netcat version doesn't work either. The connection is closed by the server, and a message like the following is produced in the logs:

2022-08-30T14:57:57.533960Z DEBUG boitalettres::server::conn: Connecting error: underlying transport failed to produce a request
